Mirror Image Press is the artists’ studio of Veda Rives Aukerman and Meda Rives Smith. Established in 1981, Mirror Image Press has grown to include multiple artistic equipment and methods. Printmaking mediums include lithography, letterpress, relief, stratography, monotype, and intaglio. Handmade paper capabilities include European and Asian techniques as well as unique hybrid processes. Book Arts includes all manner of sequential imagery including bound and unbound structures in a vast array of scale from handheld books to gallery filling installations termed “BookEnvirons.” By concept and scale, BookEnvirons create immersion experiences for the viewer who enters and explores the space shaped by the artists’ book. Inspired by Nature, seeking the sublime, BookEnvirons are experienced as shelter, escape, epiphany; shaping our space, our thoughts and our aspirations.
